But it concerned bare feet,
And a vicar who stole a stocking!

With mine.

There Are Many Ointments
There are many ointments
For stings
And similar things.
And, for life’s disappointments

To sing
May, perchance, ease the sting
Of the she
Who rejects thee.
On Going To Bed Last Night
On going to bed last night
I saw a young lady with a kite.
When I asked, “what are you doing here?”
She said, “the night being drear
And your window so near,
I flew in here with this kite!”.

And the setting sun
Mark Time
